Representation in politics takes center stage during first Elect Her panel discussion Screenshot of the Elect Her panel. On Dec. 8, Elect Her UVic, a club dedicated to promoting the participation of women and marginalized communities in politics, hosted their very first Women in Politics panel discussion. The panel brought together seven women who are involved in the Canadian political scene to speak about their experiences and the continued underrepresentation of women and minority groups in politics. The hour-and-a-half panel began with a series of questions posed to the panelists by Elect Her board members and then transitioned into a Q&A discussion which allowed for audience members to ask the panelists their own questions. Total attendance fluctuated between 30 to 40 for the majority of the panel.
